Hi HN, We're launching SalesMan, an AI platform that teaches sales skills through interactive chat, video, and messaging experiences. *The Problem:* Most sales training is one-size-fits-all and happens in classroom settings divorced from real selling situations. 70% of sales reps forget what they learned within a week, and only 26% get regular one-on-one coaching. We saw this problem firsthand - even great sales training programs struggle to provide personalized, just-in-time coaching that adapts to each rep's learning style and pace. *What We Built:* SalesMan is an AI-powered sales coach that provides *Interactive chat-based role-playing* where reps practice objection handling, discovery calls, and closing techniques *Video-based scenario training* with AI-generated customer personas and realistic sales situations *Messaging workflows* that simulate email sequences, LinkedIn outreach, and follow-up strategies. *Real-time feedback* on communication style, empathy, and sales methodology The AI analyzes each interaction and provides personalized coaching insights, helping reps improve their emotional intelligence and sales effectiveness through deliberate practice. *How It Works:*Reps engage with AI-powered customer personas that respond authentically to different sales approaches. The system tracks performance across multiple dimensions - from discovery questioning to closing techniques and provides immediate, actionable feedback. Unlike traditional training, reps can practice anytime, get unlimited repetitions, and receive coaching tailored to their specific weaknesses. *Our Story:* We started this after seeing how difficult it was to scale quality sales coaching at enterprise organizations. Traditional role-playing with peers has limitations, and most sales managers don't have time to provide the level of personalized coaching that drives real improvement. We wanted to democratize access to world-class sales training using AI. *Technical Details:* Built on conversational AI with natural language processing for realistic interactions. Uses machine learning to adapt scenarios based on individual performance patterns. *What Makes It Different:* Unlike generic chatbots or static training modules, SalesMan provides dynamic, contextual coaching that evolves with each user. The AI doesn't just follow scripts - it responds intelligently to different sales approaches and helps reps develop genuine empathy and communication skills.
